Tubular Worlds is a representative of the shooting genre, in which a small boat flying in one specific direction has to face a masterpiece of alien spaceships trying to attack and conquer our planet.

These types of productions generally do not require the use of grey cells and such is also the Tubular Worlds. The player will only have to show agility in bypassing enemy missiles, speed and effectiveness in annihilation of enemy ships and a bit of luck, which will help to get out of even the worst oppression with a defensive hand. The action has been divided into several worlds, determining, as it is not difficult to guess, the next stages of the game. Due to the fact that the terrain is characterized by changeable shape and the camera is constantly moving in one direction, it is necessary to pay close attention not to hook on the edge of the high rock, because it will end in disaster. Enemy missiles are also extremely effective and can turn your vehicle into the first thing you need to do when you first come into contact with it. It is a pity that no thought was given to an energy reserve that would have allowed us to take a few shots without any consequences. At Tubular Worlds, the death of the pilot is very annoying - we never start in the place where we died, but go backwards. Fortunately, the player is not defenceless in the fight against the invader. After the destruction of some enemy ships there will be bonuses, which will increase the strength of our weapons or allow for faster movement.

The Tubular Worlds audiovisual training is realized at a decent level. Variable terrains, nice ship animations and a large variety of them classify the game highly in terms of aesthetics. It's a bit worse with the sound and especially with the music, but it can be experienced. To sum up, Tubular Worlds is an interesting shooting game that should satisfy all fans of the genre. An additional advantage is the fact that two people can take part in the struggle at the same time.
